May 5th, the Warriors defeated the Rockets 103-89 and advanced to the second round 4-3. They will face the Timberwolves in the second round.
Timberwolves are the old club of Warriors star Butler. Butler was traded to the Timberwolves in the 17-18 season, helping the team to enter the playoffs after 14 years. However, since then, he had differences with the team's management over contract renewal issues and the conflicts with the young core (Downs and Wiggins) gradually became public, which eventually led to him asking for a deal to leave the team at the beginning of the 2018-19 season. During this period, Butler also had a famous incident of Butler leading the third lineup to beat the starting lineup including Towns and Wiggins.
After arriving in the East, Butler was absent against the Timberwolves many times, and only played one game against the Timberwolves in the past three years.
